Meanwhile, Harper struggles with anxiety and hallucinations which are exacerbated when her husband is offered a job in a different state.
 
Other characters include the infamous real life character of Roy Cohn. Roy was a McCarthy-ite lawyer who prosecuted Julius and Ethel Rosenberg in the espionage trial which led to their execution in 1953.
 
Premiering in 1991, Tony Kushner’s multi-award-winning, witty epic is set during the Reagan years in America and has been heralded as "one of the twentieth century’s defining works of American art.”
